Epically Geeky Show

Cancel culture has dragged some truly horrible people into the light of public opinion for actions that are not politically correct today. It has also done so with some innocent people but thats not our topic. This month we are looking back at movies from our childhood and doing the same thing. Sexist, racist and homophobic humor are all open targets. Violence, killings and abuse all has to go. Wi...

We’re going back to another favorite topic, that Hollywood seems to love as well; reboot, remake or sequel. The time the group can pick 2 properties from film, TV, video game or books to either make a reboot, remake or sequel from. Which would you choose for Clue, The X-Files or Harry Potter? Host:  Eugene Stephens Guests: Kris Andrew , Ray Andrew , Joseph Moroles , Shaun McLaren , Jesse Ruiz...

You knew this was coming. How could we not discuss the biggest movie thus far in 2021? And on top of that, a super hero movie that only came to be because of fan outcry. Now that everyone has had time to watch and digest the 4 hour epic that is Zack Snyder’s Justice League, aka “The Snyder Cut,” it’s time to discuss what we liked, what we didn’t, what we thought of it compared to the original cut...

Agents of Shield and Agent Carter were supposed to be direct tie-ins to the MCU but went their own ways never living up to that claim. So when Disney announced WandaVision would be a direct tie-in and was about Wanda living in a 60’s sitcom with the deceased Vision, a lot of people were scratching their heads. Now that the show has wrapped up, we discuss how it went from a quirky idea to one of th...

COVID-19 forced the world to come to a near stand-still last year and caused media producers to push nearly everything back. The up side is we are hopefully about to reap the rewards this year. This month we share our lists of the movies, TV shows, video games, books and music we are most looking forward to in 2021. Host:  Eugene Stephens Guests:  Ray Andrew , Joseph Moroles , Shaun McLa...

Last year Disney Plus had a runaway hit with The Mandalorian. So what could be better than that? Season 2 of The Mandalorian! In our final episode of 2020, we get together and discuss one of the few bright spots of the year. So grab your Baby Yoda merchandise you got for Christmas and lets look back at one of the best things to come out of the Star Wars universe. Host:  Eugene Stephens Guests...

Remember when we thought 2018 and 2019 were pretty bad years and we had such high hopes for 2020? You know 10 years ago when this year started? This year has seen everything from Tiger King to murder hornets, Covid-19 to space flight, and it just keeps coming. It has been a lot to deal with, so this holiday season we’re going to gather our friends virtually around the yule log, pour a little somet...

Star Trek vs Star Wars, Mac vs PC, the Care Bears vs No Heart. Some divides are just too wide bridge… or are they? In a time when the US is so heavily divided we look at some of the biggest oppositional forces in geek culture and see if we can find a way to bring them together. Can we all just get along? Host:  Eugene Stephens Guests:  Kris Andrew , Ray Andrew , Joseph Moroles Like the s...

Freddy vs Jason. Alien vs Predator. Dracula vs Frankenstein. It seems like as long as we’ve had movie monsters we’ve dreamed of seeing them duke it out to determine who would be the biggest of the big bads. This month we’re throwing them all together in a sweet 16 tournament to see who would come out on top and to answer that age old question; what would you get if a Xenomorph burst from the chest...

We’re playing the name game again but this time we have expanded to TV shows as well. What happens when the take two properties that share a word in their title (first and last) and combine them? You get a totally new, and sometimes awesome, show or movie. For example, what happens when the Ghostbusters have to win a street racing competition with the help of Paul Walker in order to stop the river...

Facebook is packed full of memes, political snipes and from time to time, some fun games. For example, when presented with 9 animal groups, which two would you pick to defend you from the rest? This month we’re debating which animal groups would be awesome protectors and which are going to most likely leave you a snack. Host: Eugene Stephens Guests: Kris Andrew , Ray Andrew , Jennifer Hetzel , Jos...

Chocolate and peanut butter, peanut butter and jelly. When you combine two awesome things, you often get something even better. This month we’re returning to an old topic and crossing over some of our favorite properties to make something even better… hopefully. Also, can we just take a moment and acknowledge how awesome peanut butter is? Host: Eugene Stephens Guests: Kris Andrew , Ray Andrew , Sh...

Ever watch a movie or play a game and think, “yeah right, things could never go that way,” or, “people would never react that way.” Now that COVID 19 has rolled over the world like the most dangerous wet blanket, do those far fetched plots still seem so far fetched? Could a zombie plague really wipe us out like in the movies, books, TV shows and games because of the way we reacted to COVID? Is our...

Back in 2016, I heard a lot of people say they were going to vote for the “lesser of two evils” in the U.S. presidential election. Flash forward to 2020 and given the candidates, I’m hearing the same thing again. Sigh. So we’re bringing back the topic but changing the combatants; instead truly evil candidates, super villains, were going with incompetent candidates; 90’s sitcom characters. How woul...

Between Netflix, Disney Plus, Hulu, Amazon Prime, CBS All Access, HBO and the rest of the streaming services, there is a million things to watch or rewatch while self quarantining in the house. Add all of the games on the Xbox, Playstation and Switch, there shouldn’t be any reason to be bored. But what should you be watching and playing? This month we share our top 5 things to watch and play while...

Disney Land is the happiest place on earth. Six Flags is fun for the whole family. While I have had a blast taking more boys to places like this, I have stopped to think, “what would it be like to go without the kids?” This month we’re coming up with a theme park for adults. What rides would there be? What lands would you visit? Get your tickets now! Host: Eugene Stephens Guests: Kris Andrew , Ray...

It is the end of a saga 42 years in the making. The ninth and final movie in the Skywalker series has hit theaters to fan appreciation and critical mediocrity. But who cares about that, did we like it? This week the group discusses our thoughts on the movie, the series and whats to come for our favorite stories set a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away. Host: Eugene Stephens Guests: Jennifer H...

Last year we had the idea to do a fictional gift exchange with the members of the site because while we are all friends and love each other, we’re not rich and a card is about the best we can do. Where as we set the limit to a high number, $1000, last year, we cranked down the limit to see how imaginative we could be at $100. How well do we know each other? Grab some egg nog or hot cocoa and let’s...

The purpose of technology is to make life better and work easier. Machines and computers can do almost anything these days and most of us have at least one piece of technology that exceeds the dreams of those that came before us even a decade ago. So why do we hold onto doing some things the old fashioned way? Paper calendars, sticky notes, hand washing dishes for example. This week we’re acknowle...

Are you a knight in shining armor charging into battle to save the day? Maybe a wizard using spells to attack the enemy and heal your allies? Perhaps you’re more of a rogue living on the outskirts of the law? All are great classes. But what about those not so great character classes; those classes that bring nothing to the group? This week we’re coming up with a list of the worst character classes...

Halloween used to be about the things that went bump in the night. And not saying all holidays haven’t become commercialized, but it seems less about being scary and more about candy and costumes. Has Halloween lost its way or has it simply found a new groove? This week we discuss how the holiday has changed over the years from when we were kids. Host: Eugene Stephens Guests: Ray Andrew , Kris And...

Every group in high school was composed of members that filled certain niches. The jocks, the A/V crew, the it crowd still had the geeky one, the cool one and the tough one. This week we’re going to come up with a list of who we would want to hang out with in high school from pop culture. Host: Eugene Stephens Guests: Kris Andrew , Jennifer Hetzel , Shaun McLaren , Ray Andrew Like the show? Do us...

This week we’re making our list of the top 5 SNES games ever. We did it with the NES and Genesis, now its time to whittle down the Super Nintendo to the best of the best.
